John Hanning Speke's 1864 narrative of exploration in Africa, identifying Lake Victoria as the source of the White Nile.
John Hanning Speke's 1864 narrative of exploration in Africa, identifying Lake Victoria as the source of the White Nile.
Über den Autor
Born in England in 1827, John Hanning Speke ranks among the great nineteenth-century explorers of Africa. He is credited with the 1858 discovery of Lake Victoria in East Africa, one of the long-sought sources of the Nile. Because his claim was at first disputed, he undertook another expedition, with Captain James Grant, to confirm his original conclusion.
